William & Catherine are pretty much in the process in stepping up their participation in the "Firm" as senior royals. That's not something anyone will have to worry about. The Queen will be turning 90 next year and Prince Philip is in his mid 90's. They know what time it is.

As for the future of The Prince's Trust, I firmly believe Charles will remain very active in his Trust. The Cambridge's and Prince Harry may very well help out, but I think the whole trust will turn into The King's Trust.

another misleading headline from the DM.... reading the article (whether that is true or not) - William's comment was that he wants to focus on building his own trust with K&H

to quote the article: William has said that he has been asked to take on the trust, but he has mixed feelings about it,’ a source said. ‘He has his own charitable foundation and he wants to make his own mark. If he takes on his father’s legacy, then it means he can’t create his own. William is very definite about wanting to do his own thing.

that is NOT the same thing as the headline: 'he'd rather not' as he wants to lead a normal life for as long as possible

I'm sure there are many transition discussions going on- the Royals are very good planners.... but this is just one more of the DM's inflammatory headlines/ stories.

The way a head group still meets does it not? I doubt, just because it has such a strong profile and professional branding as The Prince's Trust that The Trust will change its name but that is just my opinion. Its The Fail, we read it, we discuss it but we don't take it as Gospel.

He played a bad guy in the 2014 hit Maze Runner, but in real life actor Will Poulter is helping to fight bullies – and he has a powerful ally on his side: Prince William.

Poulter, 22, met with William during an anti-bullying workshop at Hammersmith Academy in west London on Monday. A proud ambassador of the day's organizers, the Diana Award, since 2011, Poulter tweeted about the "amazing vibes and positive energy" during William's visit.

Prince William "seems genuinely invested in wanting to cause a change to the way in which we approach bullying at our schools and ensure schools are a happy and safe place for people to be," Poulter tells PEOPLE.

That could not have been an easy call to go to. None are, I know, but when you're being called out for an accident where a land Ambulance is involved, then I can imagine that does change things for the Air Crew.

This really highlights the valuable work of East Anglian Air Ambulance. It operates strictly on fundraising and its budget is around £8 million a year.

William was able to bring attention to the already incredible work done by the charity.

I think its a brilliant form of pubic service to combine with his royal engagements.

I like the transparency of what they post on their web page - yet they uphold patient privacy at the request of the patient. I also like it that they shine a light on the medical personnel. Not that the pilots don't deserve credit, but the MDs save/stabilize lives as the pilots do their worthy work. I'm also loving it that they don't mention the Prince. They could. And it would boost followers. But it would also create a circus-like atmosphere, so they have made a wise and safe choice.

It would be bad form I suppose to have William's face splashed all over its website but make no mistake, EAAA is fully aware of what William brings to the table other than his skill as a pilot.

Patrick Peal, chief executive of the East Anglian Air Ambulance (EAAA), welcomed the announcement back in 2014, saying the organisation would benefit both from William's skills as a pilot and from a boost to the charity's profile.

Mr Peal added: "This is really good news for the charity and we're delighted His Highness has decided to fly with us.

‘We are confident this will help raise the profile of the charity and other air ambulance charities in the region and across the UK.

‘We're very fortunate that we currently enjoy tremendous levels of support but fundraising is always a challenge - we're looking to raise £7.5 million a year to continue the lifesaving work - and I'm sure that this will help to raise the profile of the charity.

The 33-year-old royal - who is second in line to the British throne - topped a new poll by The Huffington Post UK, getting 25 per cent of the vote.

1,500 men were asked to choose their role model for the Modern Male research.

William - who has children, Prince George, two and six-month-old Princess Charlotte with his wife Duchess Catherine - beat off competition from his friend David Beckham, who got 14 per cent of the vote, US President Barack Obama (nine per cent) and chef Jamie Oliver (four per cent).

Thank you for the information on Prince William. I truly admire this young man for his dedication to helping others and using his position for the good of so many. He will make a fabulous king someday!

I find it funny that some people have called William work shy. He had Royal engagements Tues-Fri goes back to Air Ambulance job immediately afterwards. An air ambulance job, he doesn't have to do and is not risk free.

I agree; he's anything but work-shy. He does a great deal, probably more than people expect from him. He goes above and beyond which will make him one heck of a monarch.
